will NHL 24 be on PC this year?
I really wish this would come to PC. nice fan base here.
Forum Discussion
@jimmarshall I think a lot of people would be super happy if it were!
@SnizzBarDizz2ohYou mean less then 3% of the playbase. Im sure they would be. There isn’t a market on pc for sports titles. There really never has been except racing.
also if it ever went to PC people would use controller so what would be the point?.
- @DeMiGoD1988 While I agree that we will never see EA NHL game one the PC in the future, I would disagree that there's no market on PC for sports titles. Football Manager is the prime example. FIFA sells pretty well on PC as well. Of course these are football games, so obviously easier to sell than hockey.
Also many current console players would move the PC version of the game it would be available.
But overall it's an unnecessary conversation as you pointed out, the PC version isn't coming. There absolutely is a market on PC for sports titles. It's being grossly underserved.
FIFA 23 and PGA Tour 2K23 are the only major PC sports titles that have Gen 9 feature parity. Madden NFL 23 and NBA 2K23 are half-assed Gen 8 ports. The NHL, UFC, and MLB The Show series don't get ports at all. I'm convinced that EA is shipping their upcoming PGA Tour game on PC only because 2K is. EA refuses to say whether the new College Football game is coming to PC at all, when they could confirm that at any time.
Do you seriously expect PC players to buy this year's inferior products to "prove their support" without any promise that next year's products will reach full parity with the Gen 9 versions? Or will they get canceled for "poor sales" because we voted with our wallets and refused to buy their inferior products? EA, 2K, and Sony are not entitled to one thin dime of our business. They have to earn it by shipping better PC games.
All I know is I want NHL on PC. Been having the same arguments for 10+ years now. Tired of debating. I just want the game on PC.
- @DeMiGoD1988 If someone will crack this game and can add all missing headshot images, better likenesses, yes would buy imediately for PC
guessing their worried that if they put a title out on pc and modders get their hands on it...the mods will correct a noticable amount of ai issues within the game and then nobody will buy another title like our friends still on NHL 2004....one decent pc release and theyll never get another pc purchase. not worth it.
- @SnizzBarDizz2oh well, I can officially say it will NOT be on PC this year, which is a crying shame.
